2. THE OBSERVATIONS WHICH BEAR ON COSMOLOGY

The observations which bear on cosmology are, for such a grandiose subject, extremely sparse. I count only about a dozen which probably bear - most of them stumbled upon by accident (see Table 1). And they are observations not controlled experiments which therefore means that they cannot compare with the thousands of particle physics experiments upon which the Standard Model is based.

Table 1. ALL THE OBSERVATIONS WHICH BEAR ON COSMOLOGY

1.	The dark sky background.*
2.	Isotropy of galaxy counts.
3.	Magnitude-Redshift diagram for galaxies.*
4.	Approx equivalence between 1/H0 and stars, elements.*
5.	Existence of CBR.*
6.	Isotropy of CBR.*
7.	BB spectrum of CBR.
8.	Measured fluctuations in CBR?
9.	Abundance of Helium.*
10.	Abundance of Deuterium.*
11.	Magnitude-redshift diagram for supernovae.
12.	Existence of walls and voids in LSS.*
13.	Radio source-counts.*?
*Serendipitous. ? = of questionable relevance.
